EOTC Year 5 Term 1 2020
The highlight of the term has been our trip to Vector Wero for whitewater rafting. With the help of our wonderful parent helpers, our learners had a great environment for risk-taking and pushing themselves out of their comfort zone to rise to the challenge of completing activities and learning new skills.
Mr and Mrs Cammell with the help of Mrs Knofflock and her daughter, Jess, provided a wonderfully challenging course of orienteering. The conditions were testing, hot and resilience building. Most of the learners pushed themselves to a satisfying completion - living the true meaning of climbing out of the ‘Learning Pit’.
The Auckland Council provided a day of outdoor learning at Eastern Beach, with paddling skills, kayaking, archery, outdoor cooking and the newly added cooperative games. The learners loved their day and showcased their collaboration and ways of applying their GEMS.
